What this tool does

Recover decodable raster image objects embedded within selected PDF pages. Reuse an embedded photograph or scan without rendering the entire page around it.

What you can open
One PDF containing decodable raster image objects.
What you will download
PNG files representing extracted image objects.

How to use it

  1. Open the PDF and select the pages that contain the pictures.
  2. Run extraction and download the image results.
  3. Compare important images with their appearance inside the original PDF.

Options explained

Pages
Select physical page positions: all, a range such as 1-3, several choices such as 1, 4, last, or the final page with last.

Know the tradeoffs

  • Vector drawings, masks and a complete page design are not separate raster image objects.
  • Color profiles, transparency masks and page transformations can affect extracted appearance.

Questions about this tool

Why was a vector logo not extracted?

A vector drawing is not a raster image object. Render the page if needed.

Why can an extracted image look different?

The PDF may apply masks, profiles or transformations when displaying the object.
